I agree, her dress looks cool and urbane. It works well with her short hair and ‘barely there’ make up. I like the way she’s kept her accessories to a minimum – her necklace enhances the look. The only thing i’d change are the gladiators.

My favorite here is not the outfit but the model, she looks so fresh and happy, and she appears to be makeup-free! My take on fabrics with stripes (subtle as they may be) is that the stripes distract from the construction of the dress, which in this case I am not particularly fond of. I bet you will get enough comments on the gladiator sandals so I will leave those alone. Once again, you broke one of the rules of photography on having the sun behind the subject, and you made it work! Jorge from W Palm Beach

I’m don’t like all the details of the dress, but I agree the sheer fabric works well with it’s silhouette. That fabric can look cheap-it needs to be put to the right application. The model is great and yes, here come the gladiator comments- I’m more tired of those than of the shoes themselves but I’ll venture forth and say they look fine here.

The dress looks wonderfully cool and beautiful, but what happens if there’s a breeze. There’s nothing more scary than a dress that won’t behave in a summer breeze! This one looks like it might not – and then what happens to keeping one’s cool?! t.x

She looks great. Beautiful girl, nice hair, gorgeous legs. I’m not big on the tent dress but with those legs she’s working the hell out of it. Fresh, comfy and chic. And if you must wear gladiator sandals this is a great way to do them.

I think this look is quite unremarkable, even the gold lining, which is a fresh idea, really doesn’t amount to much when paired with gladiator shoes which are at the height of current trends. Such a pretty girl should be able to muster up an outfit a little more substantial.

I think she looks great in the dress; it works for her. Love the lack of makeup and accessories, and her slight smile; she looks beautiful. I agree, the minimalism looks great and comfortable for a summer day.

Fantastic look. Back to school, back to the world. And maybe, back to Paris for the Pret-a-Porter salon opening Friday. Check out our site and see what we’ve been working on for Pretty Box. http://lalandedigitalpress.blogspot.com/

I’ve noticed an improvement in your photos like this one, where in the past they seemed to be a bit too ‘atmospheric’ for us to see the subject fully when the exposure was set more to the backlighting. Of late, though, your shots have been much ‘better’ exposed, so we can see the clothing details, at the potential expense of having an over-exposed background.
